So Grateful For You

Hi Bloggers.

Another card made with Heartfelt Creations stamps today -

The image is from the Botanical Oval Pre Cut Set (HCPC 3520). I stamped it using Jet Black Archival and embossed with Cosmic Shimmer Clear Embossing Powder. I popped the sentiment from the same stamp set in the middle. I coloured in using Cosmic Shimmer Matt Drawing Inks. I used Sunflower (Summer Fayre), Soft Moss (Garden Twist) and Marigold (Autumn Shades). I cut it out using the smallest of the Spellbinders Grand Stately Circles and inked through the die with Scattered Straw Distress Ink using Cut n Dry Foam. I stamped the image again and cut a couple of the Lilies out using the Heartfelt Creations Cross and Lilies Die Set (HCD 719). I coloured in as before and popped them on top of the first image using 3d foam pads. I cut the second size of the Grand Stately Circles out of Pale Yellow Card.

For the background, I ran some Coconut White Card through the Grand Calibur with the Spellbinders Garden Lattice A4 M-Bossabilities Folder. I inked around the edges with Scattered Straw Distress Ink and added some Self Adhesive White Pearls to the corners.

I assembled the card as shown adding some dots of Cosmic Shimmer Pearlescent PVA around the edges.

Morning Julia,I liked this when I saw it on Tuesday just what is needed for a grey and dreary day, it is very Spring like. I really like these stamps they are good for colouring and can be made into any sort of flower.TFSHugsAmanda x

Hi Julia. I like this card very much,especially the colour,it's nice and summery. I have just bought the grand circles dies but not used them yet but your card has just given me some inspiration. Thanks. SueL

Hi Julia, I've not posted for a while but I've noticed just how much your blog has grown, Way to go! I'm so very pleased for you as your cards are lovely and Thank you for sharing all your ideas and techniques.

Hi Julia what a lovely springlike card and that yellow is a lovely shade not too in your face!! A great card to brighten up anyone's life on this rainy and very dreary morning, thank you. Love Lesley x

Hi Julia, are you ready for the weekend ahead? Today's card is a ray of sunshine, even though it's not outside! Loving the flower stamp, and the dies. I'm hoping to get these dies soon, missed out on the POD. Beautiful bow, need to get some of that ribbon. Crafty hugs Debbie R xx
